Dave Meltzer reported (behind his paywall) that Conor negotiated guaranteed salary upfront and was set to get paid in full immediately after the fight.
Perhaps the guarantee played into Conor's decision to promote less than he usually has?
I am not saying it is true (neither did Meltzer), but if Conor's bank account is not effected by the loss/gain of 200k in buys, maybe that played into it & maybe that was the big fallout with him & Lorenzo.
I found it surprising Zuffa would agree to that...
Report: Conor no longer receives PPV points, but huge guaranteed money.
